La construcción literaria de Jorge Baron Biza, hijo del atacante y la víctima, no solo reconstruye textualmente el ataque y sus consecuencias, sino que plantea una operación formal que emparenta la reconstrucción del rostro de su madre con la construcción básica del relato nacional argentino.","PeriodicalId":39612,"journal":{"name":"Revista Canadiense de Estudios Hispanicos","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45519877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

My approach to a new understanding of Ferreras’s film is two-fold: first, I engage with the often-overlooked animation to ask how it too contributes to the cinematic vision of later life; second, I aim to liberate Arrugas from the predominant binary discourses of successful aging/aging-as-decline often employed to understand the film. Drawing on theories of animation and aging, I highlight how Arrugas reflects later life as more complex, a notion central to Linn Sandberg’s theory of affirmative old age. \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":39612,"journal":{"name":"Revista Canadiense de Estudios Hispanicos","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48180323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Esbozo novelesco de costumbres futuras (1919) de Eduardo Urzaiz. Partiendo de nociones como utopía crítica (Moylan) y utopía experimental (Abensour), el artículo explora cómo la novela de Urzaiz desoculta sistemáticamente las ambivalencias y contradicciones inherentes a las sociedades eugenésicas. Estos casos de contradicción revelan que la vida, a pesar de las tecnologías que intentan codificar su devenir constante, es en realidad un flujo que excede cualquier forma preestablecida. Eugenia pone en escena la existencia de formas-de-vida (Agamben) que buscan desactivar el control biopolítico de los cuerpos y poblaciones. \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":39612,"journal":{"name":"Revista Canadiense de Estudios Hispanicos","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45806671","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
